What Is a Mommy Makeover?
A mommy makeover is a unique and comprehensive plastic surgery treatment specifically tailored to address each patient’s aesthetic concerns. It allows our surgeons to aesthetically enhance multiple areas of the body through the combination of several body contouring and breast enhancement procedures.
The Goal of a Mommy Makeover
The goal of a mommy makeover is to restore the shape and appearance of a woman’s body after childbearing. Many women notice changes in their bodies post-pregnancy. There are many areas of the body that can be addressed, most commonly the breasts, abdomen, waist, genitalia, and buttocks. A mommy makeover is typically performed as a single-stage procedure. There are many techniques used to perform a mommy makeover, and many factors should be taken into consideration when choosing which techniques are best:
- The desired amount of restoration
- Placement of the incisions
- Type of implant used
Good Candidates for a Mommy Makeover
Ideal candidates for a mommy makeover are women who wish to correct two or more of the following pregnancy-related changes to the body and breasts:
- Breasts that are deflated, shapeless, or asymmetrical due to weight fluctuations brought on by pregnancy and nursing
- Breasts that sag or nipples that hang below the natural breast crease
- Oversized areolas or downward-pointing nipples
- Loose, excess skin on the abdomen
- Weakened or separated abdominal muscles
- Stretch marks on the lower abdomen
- Localized pockets of fat on the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, hips, or back

Mommy Makeover Options
Possible procedures in a mommy makeover:
- Breast augmentation
- Breast lift
- Tummy Tuck
- Liposuction
- Body Lift
- Vaginal Rejuvenation
Breast augmentation to treat deflated, shapeless breasts, restores fullness, volume, and shape to flat or deflated breasts. Patients have the option of saline and silicone implants to produce a more voluptuous chest.
Breast lift to raise sagging breasts and remove excess breast skin and raises the remaining skin and tissue to a more youthful position on the chest wall. The procedure can also resize and reposition stretched-out nipples and areolas. A breast lift can be combined with breast augmentation to simultaneously improve the breasts’ shape, position, and size.
Tummy tuck to remove excess skin and fat, and repair separated abdominal muscles, firms the abdomen by removing loose, excess skin and fat. Abdominal muscles that have weakened or separated after childbirth can be repaired to create a flatter contour. In some cases, the procedure can also improve the appearance of stretch marks below the navel.
My life has been better after my procedure
Dr. Cherrie Heinrich was an amazing woman.
She helped get my insurance to cover surgery and my life has been better after my procedure healed and I no longer had any unnecessary skin.
I would recommend her to anyone I know that need a good plastic surgeon.
Liposuction to eliminate stubborn pockets of fat on the abdomen, back, thighs, hips, and buttocks. Liposuction eliminates stubborn fatty deposits in various body areas. The procedure in Twin Cities is commonly combined with lift procedures like tummy tuck and lower body lift to create a more sculpted physique.
Lower body lift to excise loose skin on the abdomen, back, thighs, hips, and buttocks. Lower body lifts remove sagging skin around the lower torso that contributes to a shapeless figure. The procedure sculpts the lower body to restore a slimmer and more attractive pre-baby body.
Vaginal Rejuvenation includes labiaplasty which is a procedure that corrects enlarged, misshapen, or visually unappealing labia.
